Courtney
Mattingly enters her sixth season as UMass Boston's Head Women's
Basketball Coach in 2014-15.

The Beacons
sixth-year head coach helped UMass Boston to their
second-consecutive winning season and third in the past four years.
UMass Boston ended the year 13-13 despite dealing with a young
roster and several key late-season injuries. Some of the highlights
of the 2013-14 season included a 25-point road victory over NCAA
Tournament participant Bridgewater State University and
back-to-back double-digit conference wins over Western Connecticut
State University and UMass Dartmouth in January.

Mattingly enjoyed her best season at the helm during the
2012-13 campaign, as the team posted a winning record for the
second time in three years (14-12) and finished tied for second in
program history with 14 wins.

For the second season in a row, Mattingly coached a D3Hoops.com
Northeast Region Rookie of the year, as Olivia Murphy teamed up
with Little East Conference First Team forward Kirsten Morrison in
the post. The team earned a pair of tournament victories, including
grabbing their first UMass Boston Tip-off Tournament Championship
since 2007.

UMass Boston made headlines in the Little East by sweeping Keene
State College for the first time in school history and finishing in
sixth place in the conference to earn their second consecutive LEC
Tournament bid.

Three years ago, Mattingly led the Beacons to their first
postseason appearance after a two-year hiatus. She also coached the
program's first D3Hoops.com All-Region honoree in Kirsten Morrison,
who also garnered Little East Conference Rookie of the Year honors.
Amongst her many accomplishments during the 2011-12 campaign was
the program's first back-to-back conference wins over Eastern
Connecticut State University.

In just her second year on the bench, Mattingly led the Beacons
to a 13-12 record, marking just the fourth time in the last 28
years that the program has posted an above .500 winning percentage.
The squad came out of the gates on fire, posting an 8-1 record
after its first nine games to match the best start in the program's
32 year history.

Mattingly became the program's 11th varsity head coach after
spending the previous six years as an assistant coach, including
the last four with Division I Saint Bonaventure University in St.
Bonaventure, NY.

Mattingly wasted no time getting acclimated to her environment
bringing 10 exciting newcomers to the fold for the 2010-11
season. The former guard has enjoyed success on the
coaching sidelines wherever she has been, beginning with her first
stop as a graduate assistant at Ithaca College, where the Bombers
posted a 23-4 record, including a NCAA D-III playoff berth and the
Empire 8 Conference title. During her stint at Ithaca in 2003-04,
Mattingly also earned a master's degree in exercise and sports
science.

A coach with tremendous energy and enthusiasm, Mattingly moved
on to Bowdoin College the following year, where she helped guide
the Polar Bears to a 26-3 record en route to a New England Small
College Athletic Conference Championship and a berth in the NCAA
Division III Elite Eight.

She continued to move up the coaching ranks when she returned to
her alma mater at Saint Bonaventure as the Bonnies' top assistant
and recruiting coordinator. She shared multiple responsibilities
within the program, including player development, scouting,
practice and game preparation as well as working with the team's
guards. Mattingly helped turn a program around which suffered a
losing season in 2005-06 to enjoy winning campaigns of 16-15 in
2006-07 and 18-12 in 2007-08. Saint Bonaventure advanced to the
Atlantic 10 title game in 2008, but it was the following season
where everything would come together. Mattingly's stay with the
Bonnies culminated in the program's best-ever record of 23-11 and
their first-ever appearance in the WNIT, where they advanced to the
elite eight.

Mattingly graduated with honors from Saint Bonaventure in 2003
with a bachelor's degree in psychology. She earned a spot on the
Atlantic 10 All-Conference second team as a junior and received
Academic All-Conference honors following junior and senior seasons.
During an award-winning junior campaign (2001-02), Mattingly
compiled season averages of 13.4 points and 6.4 rebounds per game.
She also served as the Bonnies' team captain as a junior and
senior.

The Bainbridge, NY native currently ranks among the top 10 on
Saint Bonaventure's all-time list in points (1,256/eighth),
rebounds (585/seventh) and assists (300/eighth) and is also one of
only seven players in program history to surpass 1,000 points and
500 rebounds.
